6.2 Switching on the Manager IQ Easy
After switching on the Manager IQ Easy, it will start automatically. During the start-up of the
IQ Easy System, a check will be made whether a software update can be performed. An FTP
server and the Manager IQ Easy software will also be started. The FTP server can be used to
copy log files to a local computer or laptop via the network. After a while the main screen of the
Manager IQ Easy will appear.
As soon as the Manager IQ Easy is started up, it will automatically start searching for connected
Simco-Ion (Devices). All found Devices will then be displayed on the screen. The current status of
all Devices found will also be displayed on the screen.
Once the system has been started up as a whole, the various control options can be used to
control the Devices. The operation of Devices can thus be activated (set to Running) or temporarily
stopped (put into Standby). Where necessary, settings can be adjusted to adjust the operation
of Devices.
For faster response, the Manager IQ Easy is equipped with a Remote I/O control. These inputs
and outputs can be connected to a PLC to be able to report the system status of the Manager
IQ Easy to the PLC, but the PLC can also control the Manager IQ Easy to switch Devices on
and off faster via a Remote On/Off signal.
For advanced Remote I/O control, the Manager IQ Easy can be provided with a special (Fieldbus)
interface. This allows a PLC to exert more control over the IQ Easy System. There will also be
more system information about the functioning of the Manager IQ Easy and the connected Devices.
The Manager IQ Easy also has the option to store information about the operation, status messages
and measurement data of the connected Devices. This information, or log files, will be stored on
the Manager IQ Easy for a period of 14 days. After 14 days, the older files are automatically deleted
from the Manager IQ Easy.
The user has the option to copy the saved log files via a USB stick or via an FTP network connection
from the IQ Easy Manager to a local computer or laptop. There the files can then be used for analysis.
